Hazard scored the decisive penalty in Chelsea’s Europa League semi-final shootout victory over Frankfurt on Thursday.
It means the Blues’ Europa League final against Arsenal on May 29 could be the 28-year-old’s final game for the club.

“I can try to speak to him but it’s not easy because of course I want Hazard, but I want a Hazard with a very high level of motivation.
“You have to ask the club because I am not in control of the market and I am not in charge of the renewal of the contract so I am not able to answer.”
